Ecological rehabilitation

Ecological rehabilitation refers to the process of restoring damaged ecosystems to a healthier state. This involves repairing the environment after disturbances, such as pollution, deforestation, or mining, by reintroducing native plants and animals, improving soil quality, and managing water resources. The goal is to recreate biodiversity and sustain the natural balance, allowing ecosystems to function properly again. Successful rehabilitation not only benefits wildlife and plant communities but also enhances ecosystem services, such as clean air and water, which are essential for human well-being.
